Doesn't matter.. Apple lawyers in 3, 2, 1.. that's even assuming legit. The obtaining of the .ipa files needed, not the API's will be questioned.. let alone the fact of getting it past App World approval.

Hmm... Releasing it as public domain software would be a very great idea. Make sure it has a GNU license so it cannot be removed and MIRROR THE OUT OF IT while you are at it. I'm talking about bittorrent, peer 2 peer (p2p) and sharing on social networks!!, this way, it cannot be taken out.

I love this work, PROPS TO YOU DEVELOPER!!

Maybe I'll convince people not to get an ipad once this is mainstream open source!

PS. Release the source code and a .tar.gz so people can compile it on other operating systems too. I like where this is going.

**DISCLAIMER** I don't support anything illegal, but I DO support the sharing of one's hard work by all means necessary.

What Bla1ze said. Obtaining of the .ipa files. I have a ton of apps bought from app store, the .ipa files are just lying around my computer. If this goes live, it would be huge for me. But i'm guessing so would the legal implications. Just look at PlayBook with Android .apk.

I must say, it's pretty hard to believe. Emulating an entire CPU, like that at near native speeds seems like a pipe dream, let alone the GPU, I/O and sound engine. Modern desktop PCs still have trouble emulating the Nintendo Wii...

Still, I'll suspend my disbelief for now, but I'm VERY skeptical here. And for those saying this would be hard to fake...not really at all.
